Examines the cultural and historical significance of swing and tells how and why it achieved its audience, unified its fans, defined its generation, and, after World War II, fell into decline. This book shows that swing manifested the kind of up-to-date allure that the populace craved. Swing sounded modern, happy, optimistic.
